That's pretty much what I have right now, except that one computer is running Vista, the other is running XP, and the rest are running 7. When you say I should set everything to default, what exactly is there to set?

I seem to have this problem on and off, and it's been happening since I had XP, then when I had Vista, and now when I have 7. I can never have my network working properly =(. Sometimes using computer names (\\comp_name) works, other times I have to force it by using the IP address because the...

Not really helpful... the formats specified didn't match. I fixed it though =). Ms Access opened everything ^_^

Hey guys ^_^ I downloaded this PDB file from my school's website, and it contains the scheduling database that we use to make our schedules every semester. I've been trying to open it with tons of programs that Google listed but couldn't find anything that could give me even a glimpse of...

I feared that would be the case... I definitely don't have the expertise to do that. I'm gonna have to look around Montreal for a place that could do such a thing >_<

Cold solder joint? Hmm... I'll look into that. Is there a way to spot these or do I need special tools?
